Effect of Drying Conditions and Embedding Materials on Post-Harvest Quantitative Parameters in China Aster (Callistephus chinensis) Flowers
The study was undertaken to optimize conditions for dry flower production in China aster flowers. The experiment was conducted with eight treatment combinations consisting of two drying conditions viz., room drying (C1) and sun drying (C2) and four media viz. Sand (M1), Sand:Borax (1:1) (M2), Borax...
